Yeah, I wasn't seeing the ads on the free beta because of my dns settings but immediately bought the remove ads version when it became available to support the developer. I bought Sync Pro for Reddit ages ago for a very small amount and used it every day for years. So happy to have the one time option as I am not a fan of the subscription model.

Yes, ad free version became available earlier this afternoon after the update.

Just bought the remove ads version. It is very thrilling to be back to Sync! I'm so used to this look and interface after eleven years with Reddit Sync. Lemmy becomes immediately more familiar and friendly to my eyes. I enjoy Jerboa just fine but I guess I am just an old guy set in my ways and this is how my favorite mobile scrolling app should look and behave. Seems great for a beta and I look forward to further developments!

This looks great. Nothing against Jerboa, but as a user of Sync for 11 years, I look forward to purchasing Sync for Lemmy!

I deleted my twelve year reddit account yesterday as soon as the Sync app gave the error. The day the internet died! Kinda bittersweet. I'm subscribing to a number of Lemmy communities that may develop into the type of places I used to hang out. I tend to lurk unless there is a thread subject on which I have some expertise and think a comment would add value. It is like starting over to find those specialized subject areas and posters here but I'm treating it like a new adventure. I never had a Twitter account but am also giving Mastodon a try too. Thanks for lemm.ee and the fediverse alternative!

Thanks for creating this instance! Reddit refugee here enjoying the discovery phase of what appears to be the new place. I was part of the digg migration to reddit over 11 years ago. The exodus from reddit to Lemmy feels similar. Using Jerboa for Android: so far so good.
